[Making his video debut and totally not someone who posted earlier in the year as a civilian is Red Hood. His helmet may look familiar for those who saw Robin's video post earlier in the week, and maybe even more so his whole outfit might be familiar because of how Red Hood charged in to grab back his stuff.

But in any case, he's recording somewhere in Nova City and at the top of some concrete stairs. At the bottom is a short landing before there are more stairs leading to a narrow street and an obstacle course made of heavy planters, construction barricades, and other bits of random debris]

The name's Red Hood. Like Robin said earlier this week, I can help out with training if anyone needs it. I've gotten far without having powers and it’s handy to know self-defense, especially if you get handicapped by one of these missions.

I can also teach parkour if anyone’s interested. I know someone's already offered to teach some fancy jumping. This one’s more about if you gotta do more than just one good jump to get away.

[To demonstrate, Jason jumps and slides down the handrail of the first set of stairs. What follows next is a series of leaps and backflips to get down the street and over the obstacles he had set up for himself. He makes good use of the walls and concrete to launch himself as necessary. Finally at the end of the obstacle course he resumes talking]

Shoot me a message if you’re interested and we’ll set something up.

Also, yes. I did get back my gun too.

[Jason pulls out the same gun he had snatched back from Robin and fires it at one of the barricades]

So yeah. Let me know if you want help on something.

( Across the Murmur comes a gentle voice. )

Hello, everyone. I'm Ko Tenjin. I'm from a place called Fukuoka in Japan, if it means anything to you. If it doesn't, that's fine, too.

Where I come from, I'm a psychologist. Someone who's trained to listen to your problems and help you work through them. I understand there's a need for this here, specifically.

( There's a pause, and then a vision of a small office space in Columbia University. It's been fixed up somewhat, though it seems a little barren. )

Through the help and encouragement of someone you may know, I've decided to open up 'slots' to do just that for you. My time is a bit limited, but I'd like to offer an hour or so to whoever may need it. You can try me out and if you find some value in it, we can set up something ongoing.

Payment isn't exactly necessary, but if you'd like to help me get my bearings around here a little more in terms of supplies and guidance, I wouldn't be opposed. Thank you for your time. I hope to see you soon.

OOC: sign ups are here! things will be largely handwaved but i'll likely have follow up questions.

hi everyoneeee i'm just wanting to ask something with regards to ko doing therapy for some characters!! since he's a trained psychologist and all. i think the way i'm going to do it:
✨ largely handwaved with some discussion.
✨ i'll have a post on his journal for it with a form to fill out page is here.
✨ limited slots, ko's own mental health pending.
✨ in between events, mostly focused on destressing + processing emotions after such.
✨ trying to go for less patient/therapist and more 'friend who knows what he's talking about' since the idea of forming more personal relationships with patients is kind of EHHHHH to me.

this post is to ask about any suggestions on an IC and OOC level. i might be overthinking things but i wanted to check with everyone too. feel free to chime in. : ) ty!

Good day, fellow Etrayans.

[ As it seems the fashion to refer to their collective as such, Dion does just that. ]

Seeing recent concerns raised regarding self-defense, I wish to volunteer my aid. While I do possess abilities that exceed the ordinary, my dragoons are capable of similar martial feats. I've long trained alongside them and am capable of guiding a regimen for those who may be interested.

Any skill takes time to achieve, but as an example, leaping to great heights is the result of dragoon training. No magical or otherwise unique constitution is required for this in my world. In addition, I can assist in learning the use of spear, sword, and unarmed combat. Dragoons focus heavily on leg strength and balance.

I fully agree with "Robin" that we must be prepared for whatever challenges we are presented with, and being capable of defending oneself is a vital skill. I've no doubt that others can provide similar guidance, but for those interested, I'm willing to arrange a regular training schedule to help achieve individual goals.

πŸ”₯ 001; week one.

[ in the interest of keeping things PG, karen has dressed for this her first occasion of putting herself on The Network. years of practice putting herself together without a mirror means she's fresh-faced and clean, much as anyone can be given the circumstance, and maybe even glowing. is she glowing? certainly she's not giving off steam, that would be odd. ]

Hello. My name is Karen. Out of curiosity, are there any tailors or dressmakers present? Maybe even a leatherworker or shoemaker?

I realise this all sounds very inconsequential, given everything that's happening and has happened to this place. But I have a need for a particular kind of wardrobe, and I'm embarrassed to say I don't know to tailor clothes for myself.

Any help would be appreciated! I'll owe you a favour, truly.

The gun shops are a bust. Completely ransacked. There are stores that look like they had sections with guns but they're also gone. So I'm currently breaking into what looks like a guard precinct. There are some weapons here but they're in bad shape and practically antiques.

[His voice squeaks a little in indignation on the word "antiques" at the sheer, pitiful oldness of it all. Of course he'd think projectile weapons were lame and out of fashion. Aside from being less functional, it's so uncool, having to hit stuff with little metal beads instead of high speed photon bursts. Like, okay, it's kind of cool people figured out how to shoot little metal bits into each other with nothing more than chemical propellant and a prayer, but he just prefers huge ammo reserves and larger bursts of damage.]

[Ugh. He's so put upon in the stone age times.]

I found a gun here I can maybe fix up if I can find some metal machining equipment and files. [He's found a decommissioned NYPD S&W Model 10. It's a little rusted and pitted, but still mostly intact, and it's obvious from the way he holds it and stares down the sight that he's stared down the sight of a gun many a time.] Preferably powered, but with the right tools, I can even fix it by hand. It'll just take forever.

[An odd bit of expertise for a 14-year-old boy. Usually, it'd take years to get that kind of metal-working expertise and the ability to restore something that damaged and broken.]

It's a manual, chemical based projectile weapon with a revolving chamber. I think I saw a thing meant to let people speed load these in one of the gun shops though. Like where you could pre-fill a round clip to drop in? I bet I could make more of those clips.

So question one: Anyone know how to make ammo for these? Or can their weird new powers do it? 'Cause it'll suck if I have to figure out how to make that too. I can figure out something to trade in return.

Question two: Anyone know where I can find some metal-working tools? Like facilities or shops on Earth in this era? I've been to New York City before but this is like seeing it in prehistoric times. The gun stores were wiped and I don't know where to find super-old stuff here.

[For instance, he has no clue that some schools have metal-working classes, but logically knows that some kind of institutions with that kind of thing might exist. He knows unfamiliarity with the era means it'll be harder to find without asking.]

And three: does anyone want anything fun from evidence lockup?

[He holds up a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire.]

It's mostly wiped out but there are still a few goodies left.

[He looks around and nods his head approvingly at the clear and obvious signs of humanity's tendencies towards lawlessness in this time. Not all of it is grim, either; he's in a section that's mostly just confiscated, improvised weaponry or dismantled booby traps. Not all of it was necessarily used in commission of crimes because it wasn't sent off to any forensics labs. Just a handful of things that might be useful against the monsters, pre-modified so people don't have to find a bat and hammer their own spikes into it, for instance.]

[Past New Yorkers were such a creative people. He sounds impressed at the incivility:]

Humans from this era knew how to party.

“Hey, new guys especially! Hi, I'm Harry. I've got clothes and stuff, come get them.”

Then he thinks of something.

“And if you’ve got anything you’d like to give away, dump it here. Let’s make the most of out this moment of peace while we have it.”

He gives his location: an old garage brightly decorated with chalks and paints. It sticks out as a swirl of wild color on the grey street. Outside cardboard boxes of clothes annd accessories are loosely organized by function.

“If there’s anything specific someone needs I can set them aside, but I’d really like to give priority to the new people who have the least.”

Hey, everyone.

Unscheduled Downtime

tl;dr version: Aurora will have only essential functions for a couple weeks during the mission. This is the outcome of a small player plot that isn't likely to impact the game at large - and characters who don't frequently reach out to Aurora may not notice any changes at all, given everything is being kept running according to plan. But you're welcome to run across his CR circle taking over some tasks for Aurora during this time.


So Bossie [personal profile] nottheboss killed Cloud [personal profile] nimbuster to see if God was listening in the couple weeks leading up to the mission and Harold asked for an exception with Aurora to pay Cloud's death pass and prevent the resulting mem loss before he resurrected. Normally, you have to pay this prior to the death occurring.

Aurora agreed, but was reduced to only essential functions for a period of about 2 weeks during the mission. (Maybe this is why she's not available for the new arrival speeches on the TDMs and the bots are going a bit amuck?) Cloud's actual death occurred pre-mission, but Aurora was able to postpone the consequences until now.

Harold is tasked with ensuring things stay running smoothly while Aurora is reduced to limited functioning, and being Harold, he is not likely to make a public network post about anything.

Harold will probably only be reaching out to preestablished CR and making individual requests for help with this, but you're more than welcome to have your characters notice what's going on! Feel free to comment around here in this post to set up interactions with characters working on this if you'd like!

( generally speaking when robin addresses - anyone else, he doesn't bother with anything other than text. audio can be efficient, but video is overkill.

in this case?

he's visibly sitting at a very nice kitchen counter, nicer than one would find in the apartments, with his boots resting up atop it. on his lap is an upside down helmet, and over the red tunic that's customary for robin is a leather jacket that is obviously several sizes too big for him. not that he seems bothered. quite the opposite: robin looks all too pleased with himself. and while the hand slung around the helmet is wrapped in a green ulnar gutter splint that blends in well with his gloves, the other? is holding onto a handgun with a spoon duct taped to the barrel.

which he is using to eat cereal out of the (plastic lined, with an actual bowl inside of it) hood.

like this is a completely ordinary way to eat cereal and a completely normal way to choose to post to etraya's network. )


There are a significant amount of individuals present who have metahuman abilities, yes? By that I mean anything more than what an average, ordinary human being could accomplish. While I am sure this functions well for you on a daily basis - the missions Aurora assigns to us can cause. . . hiccups in these abilities. Given the pattern that has been established by previous missions, I would estimate that the upcoming one may be more physically and mentally taxing. Often times, these missions do cause abilities to fluctuate and I can't imagine that would be good for anyone who is more accustomed to healing instantaneously or tolerating getting hit by moving busses as if it's nothing.

( a wave of the gun-spoon, before damian shoves it back into the bowl for another bite of cap'n crunch cereal. because it's delicious. )

My point being - regardless of one's starting point, being prepared for anything that may come is essential to not dying here. If you are a metahuman who is accustomed to being able to handle more than others, I would recommend focusing on training yourself to be able to handle anything that may come your way, with or without those abilities. If you have no self-defense training at all, I would get on that.

( another bite, and - oops, is that milk on his face? don't mind him as he uses this very nice leather jacket to wipe it off. )

And if you need assistance, there are several capable individuals here who are used to going up against impossible odds without any metahuman talents who would be willing to help. Red Hood may be a decent starting point.

Hi. So. Sophie Cuckoo, owner of NYX, tall blonde girl with rainbow hair, telepath, etc.

I'm coming here to ask you guys for some, ugh, help. There are so many unexplored aspects about the world we currently live in, and a lot of unanswered questions we all have that aren't really going anywhere. I think it's about time we stopped being so fucking complacent and actively looked for them ourselves, because I'm so sick and tired of just waiting. It doesn't sit right with me.

So, I'm going to go on a little quest through a few places in this dump to see if I can actually find something, and that includes anywhere that fucking sucks, by the way, so I have that going on for me.

If you're new to this channel, know that telling me not to do shit I've decided to do has never worked, not even once in my life. You can't stop me, and that's final. What you can do is help me, and that's what I'm asking for. I need groups; it's a lot of ground to cover.

Do I know if it's going to pan out? No, I have no idea, so it might be bust, and then we went on this sidequest for no loot. Is it going to be dangerous? Probably.

So, at your own risk and responsibility, let me know.

P.S.: Needless to say, NYX is going to be closed till I'm back. When it's over, I'll call a meeting there for everyone to get with the news.
P.S.2: I'm going to be in diamond form for some of this. Don't take me personally, and if you're not sure if I am, seriously, just call or text me, because I can't hear you like that.

So...I've noticed Etraya has twelve months, and Eberron also has twelve months. Eberron's fourth month is in spring, and Etraya's fourth month is also in spring. So I'm going to just assume April is Eyre, which means...it's my birthday on the fifteenth!

I was wondering if anyone would like to do something for it? I was thinking drinking, wrestling, playing games, that sort of thing!

And there could be a roast! And pie!
